Alma

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 3 years

Notfellchen Alma is desperately seeking a foster home. Alma is only 3 years old, microchipped, and neutered—but still feels like she has been given up on. For so long, she has waited in the animal shelter, day after day, becoming quieter. She withdraws, seeking shelter from the chaos in the animal shelter. We observe Alma with great concern. Alma desperately needs a quiet and loving foster home, perhaps even a permanent one. A home with people who can catch her with all their heart. The fact that no one has shown interest in this wonderful soul so far likely lies in her FIV diagnosis. But even with this diagnosis, it does not mean she cannot lead a happy life or must necessarily be alone. We are happy to provide detailed advice on living with an FIV cat. What Alma needs now is a chance! A home in apartment care, on a temporary basis, or ideally forever. Please do not look away. Alma does not have infinite strength.

Notfellchen Alma sucht dringend eine Pflegestelle Alma ist erst 3 Jahre jung, gechippt und kastriert – und doch hat sie das Gefühl, längst aufgegeben worden zu sein. Seit so langer Zeit wartet sie im Tierheim, Tag für Tag wird sie stiller. Zieht sich zurück, sucht Schutz vor dem Trubel im Tierheim. Wir beobachten Alma mit großer Sorge. Alma benötigt dringend eine ruhige und liebevolle Pflegstelle, vielleicht auch Endstelle. Ein Zuhause bei Menschen, die sie mit ganz viel Herz auffangen. Das sich bisher niemand für diese wundervolle Seele interessiert hat, liegt vermutlich an ihrer FIV-Diagnose. Doch auch mit dieser Diagnose, bedeutet dies nicht, dass sie kein glückliches Leben führen kann oder zwangsläufig allein bleiben muss. Gerne beraten wir ausführlich zum Leben mit einer FIV-Katze. Was Alma jetzt dringend braucht, ist eine Chance! Ein Zuhause in Wohnungsaufhaltung, auf Zeit oder bestenfalls für immer. Bitte schau nicht weg. Alma hat nicht unendlich viel Kraft.

About Alma

What life with Alma looks like

Alma is a large young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Eisenach in Eisenach.

An adult cat usually shows their personality within a week. Give them a quiet room with everything they need (food, water, litter, hiding spot) and let them choose when to explore. Don't force interaction — every cat decides for themselves when a new home counts as home.

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.

Frequently asked

Adopting Alma, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Alma?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Eisenach handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Alma on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Alma if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Eisenach will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Alma already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most cats on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Alma isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Tierheim Eisenach early rather than rehoming privately; they know Alma and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (DE). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
